Find Ancestors

Hi
Can you help me I am trying to do a family tree for my husbands birthday present and the above lady is his mam she married James eadsforth in 1943' can you help me locate her parents and siblings
Thanks
Margaret :-)

Look for her birth...on freebmd

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/

It's a really easy site to use...................

Then look for marriage for the parents...and the names of the other children they produced (several)

May I advise you to spell the forename correctly (Mabel) when searching.......otherwise you won't find the record

What a shame! Everything that was posted here was on FreeBMD. Reggie had given you the link for it. You could have found all of this info yourself. Much more fun to do the research yourself!

Thank you
I've tried Freebmd but cannot get anything
I'll try again,
Thanks margaret

Not sure how you're searching........the info is easy to find.

PH found it all............so you don't actually have to bother.

And you won't get the 'buzz'' of discovery.................

Hi Reggie
I'm doing this for a present for my husband and apologise I do not know how to get around the sites.
With the help of the kind people above I,ve managed to get information and could not do it without their help
I thank you all sincerely
Margaret

Hi all
Can you tell me if I can hire to do this for me as you can see I am struggling
Yours
Margaret :-S

Hi Margaret

I am pleased you appreciated the info i posted for you.

I agree that it is more fun finding info for yourself.......and also understand that some members struggle when trying to search for information.

You really do not need to hire anyone to help you........because we can help you for free.

Sometimes though, you need to purchase certificates to make sure you are on the right track.

I suggest you purchase a copy of the Carter/Tooke 1913 marriage to enable you to get back further with your research.

The best place to order certificates is online here...

http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/

Certificates cost £9.25

If you have problems trying to purchase the certificate, let us know and we can help you with that too.

Regarding Freebmd....

Just to give you an idea of how it works.

You know that Mabel Tooke was born 1917 in Stockton.

So...you click on "Births" ...Put Tooke in the "Surname" box and Mabel in the "First name" box. Put 1917 and 1917 in the "Date range" and click on "Find" at the bottom.

You will see that it gives you Mable's mother's maiden name. (Carter)

You then need to find a Tooke/Carter marriage before 1917.

So.....click on "Marriages"...Put Tooke in the "Surname" box and Carter in the "Spouse/Mother surname" box.

I put in a "Date range" of ten years so......1907----1917

Click on "Find" and up will pop the Stockton marriage in 1913.

To then find out if they had any children....

Click on "Births"
Put Tooke in the "Surname" box and Carter in the "Mother/Spouse name" box.

You know they married in 1913.......so put in a "Date range"of 1913 and lets say 15 years........so 1913....1928

Click on "Find" and see what names pop up.

Give it a go Margaret.

I hope this helps!!

Jolly good Margee.

No wonder i couldn't find it.

I just spent over half an hour looking for that!

Not bad considering it was only 5:45 in the morning here and I hadn't had my coffee yet. Giving myself a pat on the back!

"Tooke" is obviously one of those names destined to be mistranscribed. A nightmare for an inexperienced researcher!

I'm not sure about the above census. Even though ages were sometimes rounded down to the nearest 5 in the 1841 census........Elizabeth seems a bit young considering she is 68 in 1851.
